Strike Anywhere – Notes On Pulling The Sky Down Lyrics 21 years ago
KidOfTheBlkHole....
I know what you mean...for the longest time, i thought "Earthbound" was titled "Notes on pulling the Sky Down"....On one of the compolations put out, the Strike anywhere song "Earthbound" is mistakenly labeled as "Notes on Pulling the Sky Down"

Doesn't really matter, as both songs kick ass

anyways...back to business...
did anyone watch the press conference w/ blair, bush and the spanish prime minister last night? did it strike anyone else as pathetic that each coutries flag was used 3-4 times behind the speakers, just to fill space? Thats why they used the island to give that speach....anywhere else, there would have been TENS OF THOUSANDS of protesters outside.....the world stands against this unjust war

Avril Lavigne – Sk8er Boi Lyrics 21 years ago
Do any of you know what the hell you are talking about?
"We needed a punk rock girl"
....................................................................
tsk tsk tsk
Haven't any of you heard about the distillers *brody* or tsunami Bomb *an all girl band*
No....you haven't, because they ARE punk. and Avril is not.......
To clarify.....
If she was punk she WOULD
be on a garage label
have shows with no more than 500 kids in a small venue
spend most of her time at said show talking with kids, not backstage by herself
Respect the scene

If she was punk, she WOULDN'T
Be on a major Corperate label
Be on MTV
SELL OUT!
Play large venue shows where no one can ever get close, and there is no Engery
the list goes on and on......i know there are some of you who actually know what you are talking about......but most of you don't

The government does mess with our lives....(Drug testing, curfue *spelling?* laws, Education...etc... the list goes on....

Anti-Flag – Die For The Government Lyrics 22 years ago
America is great! What a fucking great country.....We go to war to HELP oppressed people, not to furthur oppress them That is all I have to say.......
*trying to keep a straight Face* *not working*
BUUUUUUUUULLLLLLSSSSSSHHHIIIIIIITTTTTT!!!!!!!!!
CouchPotatoHero- this is for you, -k-?
America supposedly supports all free democratic nations, right? then why is it the we will not allow Palestine to conduct a free, democratic election? (because we know who the winner will be *Arafat* and we don't want him as a leader) so we don't let them have thier election......Isreal wants it, Palestine wants it, but America doesn't and so it doesn't happen. back in the 60's and the 70's we effectively killed several pacific island democratic governments all in the name of "hunting the reds) example.
One leader (who was demcratically *spelling?* elected, by the way) decides he wants to make a change in his country...His people have no land to farm, and so cannot be self sufficient. an American Fruit company has land on this island that they are not using...about half the islands actuall land mass...so he takes that and gives it to his people, so they can actually work for themselves.
The US fruit company goes back to congress saying that "A communist government is trying to steal their land and take over their workers.....We go in and overthrow the government there and put in place a man who would later violate several human rights laws and become a militay dictator.....and we cheered when it happened, because all we were told was that we overthrew a communist government on some no name island.....
If you go anywhere else in the world, and buy a history book, you would be shocked to find out how much is different.....
What happens is that they put out the book, and then it becomes to hard to re-teach, so any time that they come up with a new event/idea/etc....they leave it out.
America is great....I mean that this time, but America's government....well......leaves a lot to be desired....
Anti-Flag doesn't only sing about the government....they have songs about being yourself, about mass media, about the WTO/IMF riots in seattle, about America's youth, about what it's like to be a kid these days.....
They aren't telling us how to think.....they're telling us how they think....and it just so happens that a lot of people agree with them.
You claim to be proud to be an american, am I right? So am I.....but I have my right to think however I want...and If you discriminate me for that, you're acting in direct contrast to what you claim to be proud to be....get your shit together and open your eyes, then come back and see me.....

SixtoEight what are you saying? that because my family is pretty well of (middle class or whatever) and money isn't really that much of an issue, that I can't be into punk? First off, it's not like I have any say over how my parents control their money, and second, if you make that restriction, then you are as bad as the people you are "saving punk rock" from.....

Anti-Flag – 911 For Peace Lyrics 22 years ago
I agree with you Rxbrother about most of what you said, but what i meant was that the "systems" (for lack of a better word at midnight) that help make bands trendy are not going to try to make A-F trendy because they are exactly what anti-flag and the bands like them (such as strike anywhere...hehe good band) stand against. The reason I quote Justin and other things is because someone out there has already said it once, and you can't say it anybetter. I had these beliefs and views long before I started listening to Anti-Flag (or any other punk for that matter.) but i started to like anti-flag not because of the music, but because they had the same point of view that I had.
About RATM and all....
I personally agree with you about that, but look what happened to them in the end...Try to tell me that major record label pressure had nothing at all to do with that....Yes, I know it wasn't the only cause, but it was definately a factor. I worry that A-F's singing with Fat Wreck Chords will ultimately end up the same way....But who knows?

Oh shit.......I'm mad again.....

Anti-Flag's cds always say "Anti-Flag is not Anti-American." and then it goes on to say stuff about how they are anti-war, for love and unity and all, but I need sleep so I can't remember the exact, and I don't wanna make an ass outta myself like you just did. Anti-Flag likes/loves the country, and the freedoms we have, but they see the contridictions and problems in the government and in the Economy, and in the avverage Joe Sixpack's way of thinking, and thats what they are trying to change

I get into the 911 for Peace page/site, expecting to see a bunch of posts about what a great song it is, and how great a message it is, and how we need to humans, not Americans, or germans, or yugoslavians.....And I see this crap about "anti-flag are anarchists" "fuck you, anti-flag is AGAINST Anarchy".........in a word.....Pathetic....
This song is clearly a joke. The band says so in the cd booklet, and as mentioned, anti-flag is straight edge, but they don't judge anybody by their belief system. About the who started "punk rock music" anyone seen SLC Punk?

"Another thing that pisses me off, argueing about who started punk rock music. Was it....the sex pistols in england? Was it...the Ramones and the velvet underground in New york? The Ramones, the Sex Pistols, blllaaaahhhhhhhh. WHO CARES WHO STARTED IT!!!!!!!! It's music. I don't know who started it, and I really don't give a fuck. What I do know is that we did it faster, Goddamn we did it harder, and we definately did it with more love, baby, UGH! and you can't take that away from us...."

I hate you now! j/k I too am going to warped tour, but the Pittsburg show. Anti-flag is playing the show right before that as their last. I think it's Pat, personally....The last time I saw them live I was talking to him after the show, and to me it sounds like he's the one doing the spoken part. Great song though...
As too your discussion with your friend, America Has already done all ten steps, and it isn't the first time it has.....just the most recent, and most americans have a very short memory, or they'd remember that Reagan, Carter, and Bush Sr. all supported Osama bin Laden.
Enjoy the Anti-flag show. I was so drunk I couldn't remember thier set, but they're my favorite band! ;-)

What the hell is this Anti flag is Anarchy Crap? Thats bullshit! They not only DO NOT say that they are anarchists, they flat out say that ANARCHY WON"T WORK! And about the 12 dollar cd thing......Did any of you go to the Mobilize for Peace tour? Did you know that Anti-flag funded that tour out of their own pockets? probably not, or you wouldn't be bitching about how "capitalistic bastard-ish" they are.

It's like Justin himself once said. "I was born in this country. I love America. I love the people in this country. What I don't love is the decisions that are being made on behalf of us, without out consent or input. George Bush is making some really bad decisions and saming that they are being made by the American people. It's not that I hate the Bush administration any more than any other previous one, it's just that they are selling us out and missrepresenting us as americans. But we never here about it because he controls the media. We need to establish our own forms of communication. Raise your voice and tell the truth. Thats what this next song is about...It's called Underground Network."
